About two weeks ago the speedometer in my car gave up the ghost. All other gauges still work fine. I got under the car,pulled the speed sensor,all looked fine. I decided to take it into Nissan since I know them over there,and have them check it out. They ran diagnostics on everything,all was good. Verdict,the gauge is bad. The part is no longer available from Nissan,of course. I know a guy from one of the Z clubs that will give me one,BUT,the entire cluster has to be completely taken apart,and all of the Z guys say it can be a gamble dismantling a 20+ year old gauge cluster. There's a place in Austin called Z Clinic that won't even do it because it's such an intricate operation on such old components and that alot of stuff can get broken in the process. If I had a second car (like I'm shopping for) I could take it all apart and repair in in my leisure so I can take my time without having my only car all dismantled.
I downloaded a GPS speedometer app on my iPhone that works great! But of course I'd rather have something other than my phone to use as a speedometer. Are there any GPS speedometers that are recommended? I see there are a ton available online but I know nothing about them.
